Cereal Prawn - Home made Recipe

When we started exploring the local foods in Singapore, one of the dishes that caught my interest in as far as cooking it at home is Cereal Prawns. So when I found an instant mix in the supermarket that can be easily used, I immediately tried it. Unfortunately, I'm not 100% convinced on the results. Somehow, interesting flavor notes are missing. Upon further research online and by asking around, I've found a recipe that's quite easy to make. Although it still doesn't taste exactly the same as the usual Cereal Prawn version that you can find in hawker centers, I guess it's satisfying enough that it's now part of my menu from time to time. Because I have kids who will partake on this dish, I omitted the chili padi to make it not spicy. If you prefer otherwise, you may opt to add it when you sauted the curry leaves.

How to make:
1. Coat the prawns with egg and all purpose flour. Heat the oil in a deep fryer.
2. Fry the prawns until it changes color.
3. In a separate wok, melt the butter. Saute curry leaves until fragrant.
4. Add in milk, sugar and cereal. Saute for 2 - 3 mins. Do not burn. Add in Fried prawns and mix well.

There are food items that are very flexible in terms of consumption (i.e. those that can be eaten in various meal occasions). One good example of which is salad. It can be served either as an appetizer, a dessert, a snack or even a meal. With its flexibility, also comes a great deal of variety. There are those that are considered light and healthy. At the same time there are those that will suffice as a complete meal due to the high calorie content. The featured recipe below fits into the later. Macaroni salad can be regarded as one of the standard salads in Philippine Cuisine. It's typically found on the dining table during special occasions. In our household, we need not wait for any particular occasion to enjoy ample servings of it. Especially so when there are adorable requests from family members that calls to be granted. Personally, I have developed a liking for this kind of salad. I pretty much grew up with it. Anyhow, what's not to be liked about it? Every dollop of thi…

When you have small kids to bring with in any out of town activities during summer, you were always limited with nearer locations to choose and shorter distance to travel. We're one of those who were faced with this kind of dilemma. Those who have killer twos and tots will probably agree with me on this. Fortunately, there are spots that are still equally enjoyable nearby. Many have recommended VILLA GREGORIA TERRACE RESORT for an out of town summer day trip. It sits in a breezy, richly filled nature in Brgy. Buboy, Nagcarlan, Laguna. To prove that indeed it's one of the hottest spots in the area, the resort was awarded by Governor Ningning Lazaro as the cleanest and best landscaped resort in Laguna in 2006. You will be greeted at the entrance gate of the resort by no less than its congratulatory banner. Approximately 2 hrs away from Manila, Villa Gregoria offers a cool nature ambiance to its visitors. The water is really cold. No need to worry though, for it will just counte…

Instant noodles are now recognized as staples in the Filipinos' dining table. With the enormous line of products available in the commercial food shelves right now, who else is not yet serving instant noodles to their family or have not tried at all? If you’re one of them, you’ve probably heard of the myths and hoaxes that roamed around for some time – 1) that noodles is the cause of “bangungot” (nightmare), 2) that instant noodles and its Styro container has wax and 3) that MSG in noodles became toxic when cooked. All these and more are nothing but misleading information. Instant noodles in the Philippines although growing is still at its infant stage relative to our other neighboring asian countries. Japan, Indonesia, Vietnam, China and Malaysia are far more large consumers of this product than the Philippines. Their noodle industry has grown full blown! Yet, none of these countries reported a single incident related to any of those “questionable claims”. Thus, we all ought to k…
